The Apple-CD 300 is afront-loading CD-ROM that uses a caddie to load the CD into the player. Yep, thatis the way it was done in the early nineties. It has a mini audio jack on thefront for listening to an audio CD, and an eject button to eject the CD caddie. The 300 has atransfer rate of 295ms with a 256KB buffer, which made it twice as fast as other CD-ROMreaders in its day. Apple has always been cutting edge.

It is compatible withthe industry-standard ISO 9660/High Sierra file formats, as well as with MacintoshHFS and is fully compatible with Macintosh operating system software, includingSystem 6/7. The player will also play a standard format audio CD using thehead phone jack on the front or the rear RCA audio cables.

Please let me know ifyou have any questions and I will answer them promptly.
